And yet Apple killed CSAM scanning months after this paper was published. Perhaps because the paper does nothing (and admits as much) to counter the issues that Apple raised about actually building and operating such a technology safely.

I am familiar with this area of technology but by no means an expert. However the vast majority of people who appear to actually have experience building and running these systems all seem to disagree with the government that this is actually cool and safe and generally give much better explanations as to why that's the case than the government do. And so I side with them.

Citing more vague government sources that don't directly contradict the work of the people building the things isn't a very convincing argument to me.
